Sweet Stampin' Challenge

It's time for a new challenge over at Sweet Stampin' and our theme this week is"Inspired by a song or film title" and we have a fab sponsor Crafts and me.I used Frank Sinatra's "September Song" as my inspiration and I used Lili of the valley's September Fairy stamp for my image which I coloured with my copics. I embossed the brown background card with an old spellbinders m-bossabilities bark embossing folder. I cut out the image and surrounding gold mirri frame with Tonic's Oh Christmas tree die set as the frame isn't actually Christmassy. I then die cut a load of leaves using a sizzix Tim Holtz strip die, Autumn gatherings and added them randomly on the card. A few pearls and a little glitter to her wings to finish.I actually made the card as a leaving card for a locum who left yesterday and so added this computer generated sentiment inside.

I'm looking forward to seeing your creations inspired by a film or song, just don't forget that we need to see some stamping on your project. Not that I totally forgot that on my original DT card or anything....!

Your card is just darling, Cara! Your coloring and fall leaves are superb! Who would have known just a few years ago that we would be making so many cards today without any stamping on them! I love that there are challenges like this to remind us how fun stamping is and how many unloved stamps we still have, ahem!!! Hugs, Darnell

Hi Cara, hope you are well?Loving your cute card, the image is lovely and her glittery wings are fab. The different coloured leaves frame her perfectly, very autumnal. I did smile at the sentiment inside the card too, perfect.
